I wouldn't worry about the benchmark score as long as the performance of the phone is still good. Benchmarks are pointless, some phones (GS4 for example) have high scores on benchmarks, but still lag considerably more than similar or lower-scoring phones.
The Nexus 5 is one of, if not the smoothest Android phone out, ignore the benchmark scores of other phones

im just asking, if other nexus 5 users have different (huge difference) in benchmark scores?

Ah, ok. No worries
Did you close any other apps before starting the test? Having more things running in the background can lower your score :-\

I have about that much left too, because I temporarily transferred the data from a few older SD cards onto the phone. I have noticed the battery performing less well than it did before I put all the data on, but I haven't noticed any slowing or lag or other signs of poor performance.

Running ART instead of Dalvik will improve performance as well

[hell911]

After rebooting I got a slightly higher score. It looks like I lost points for battery?

Rebooting completely clears your RAM, that's probably why it went up slightly

 

[hell911]

what i noticed is that leave the phone alone with all apps closed for 5-10 minutes, then open only the benchmark application. that's how i got my score now.

and i didnt switched to ART.

I switched to ART and got a very low score. :what: Is it bad to switch to ART and back to Dalvik? I'm worried about some apps not running right.

From what I've seen ART usually gets higher scores. It's not bad, all apps should work fine on Dalvik
